31 Cayman Drive Clear Island Waters

Greg at Castle Construction is a perfectionist. He made sure everything was exactly as we wanted it.

The Project

31 Cayman Drive was a major renovation project, taking a contemporary 1990’s style 4 bedroom Gold Coast home on a 771m2 block, and turning it into a stunning 6 bedroom modern looking home.

Anita and her husband Chandra purchased 31 Cayman Drive in April 2014.

The large 4 bedroom waterfront home was finished in a brick style, which was typical for homes built on the Gold Coast during the 90’s. Soon after moving in, Anita and her husband decided to undertake a major renovation and expansion of the property. Working with their own architect plans were drafted to:

2 New Upstairs Bedrooms

New Balcony Upstairs

Build New Wooden Staircase

2 X New WIR

New Entrance & Hallway

Garage Conversion

New Carport

New Driveway

Double Story Void with Feature Window

New Entrance Portico

New Bedroom Downstairs

Rendered all Exterior Brickwork

Substantial Roofworks

New Boundary Wall

New Tiling Throughout Home

Once the plans had been finalised Anita set about selecting a quality builder and met with 5 seperate local building companies. One of these was Greg Rice, co-founder of Castle Construction, who was recommended to Anita by a neighbour, for whom Castle Construction had completed some work. Anita was immediately impressed by Greg’s knowledge and professionalism, as well as the fact that he offered a number of suggestions and ideas that she liked.

From the start Greg provided great communication and ideas. Castle were competitive on price, and having come highly recommended by our neighbours, they were the standout choice from the 5 builders we met with.

Having selected Castle Construction to undertake the renovation, work commenced in December 2014. Although this was a major project, Castle structured the work in order for the family to remain living in the home for the duration of the construction work. In total the project took just 16 weeks and was completed on-time and on-budget. Another factor that impressed Anita was that Greg was on-site nearly every day. Having previously completed many major renovations on similar sized homes Greg would often suggest better ways of doing things, which Anita appreciated, and if she was ever unsure or unhappy with anything, Castle would simply re-do the work until full satisfaction was achieved.

Throughout the project there were numerous Castle Construction tradespeople on-site and it was noted how polite, clean and tidy they always were. Nothing was ever too much trouble and Anita and her family could not have been any happier with their new home when all work was completed.

Greg & the team at Castle were brilliant, if you are looking for a quality Gold Coast Builder then I highly recommend them.
